The Burpster

Ouch this is really hard....... I do like and own natural basses...... But IMHO EVERTHING looks good in black, so thats what I voted for.

Look for a Highway 1 and get the best of both worlds...... IMHO FWIW

Bugger.... Didnt want to and wasnt expceting to hear that...... May have to look at other options now.....

Wasnt there a thread about this very bass sometime back..... Someone on here had a friend or tutor (somthing like that) that bought a brand new stingray and painted it puke colours

Anyone any experience of Moses necks? [url="http://www.mosesgraphite.com/index.html"]http://www.mosesgraphite.com/index.html[/url] In lieu of PRS not being able to make me a fretless neck (without charging space-shot type fees) I'm toying with speccing a neck and ordering it from these.....

Aaaahhh so you point out..... But IIRC they have over 150000 satisfied customers so what do we know....... My advice FWIW is steer clear of the place, or go in and look around but certainly dont engage them in conversation, they are cretins.

Hmm I like that pitchblack and having a small pedal board, makes me wonder if I should have got one of them instead of the DT10

Korg DT 10 on the pedal board... I reckon top VFM..... Gassing for a Peterson strobe meter for set ups tho'......

Still cant get my head 'round that Parker Fly-esque bottom bout, but other than that I like that a lot.....

Hummmmn top 3 playmates.... 1. Claudia (Schiffer) 2. Shania (Twain) 3. Cindy (Crawford).

Excellent now what will he come up with for the P bass....?

Make your mind up, dont deviate from your goal and it is remarkably gratifying.....

[quote name='Toasted' post='312917' date='Oct 23 2008, 12:47 PM']I like Ferret. He might be abrasive but at least he has some personality.[/quote] Meaning?

[quote name='bass_ferret' post='312900' date='Oct 23 2008, 12:29 PM']There will come a day Ped when you will get fed up with wiping peoples arses for them. And talking of bassworld; I wonder if thats what happened to Gerard.[/quote] Is there really any need to be so abrasive....? What are you hoping to achieve?

DB5 getting new grubbies is a piece of pish if you want to keep it.... come back to me ai'll let ayou a know a supplier where you can get them quickly and in different lengths..... this is of course academic if you prefer the DJ5, and I cant help you with that !

[quote name='bass_ferret' post='311020' date='Oct 21 2008, 09:03 AM']Not sure why the Burpster is talking bollocks?[/quote] Please define how economics is bollocks? £122 as opposed to £55 + £2 P+P for essentialy the same thing....? [color="#800080"][i]"uep 88 £55.00 + £2.00 p&p Our 'Bio blocker full shell', features unique ULTIMATE in ear technology, so the plug is shaped within the confines of the ear. Additionally the UEP 88 is easy to keep clean providing years of use. We are so confident in our product it comes with a two year guarantee." [/i][/color] Let other folks make their own minds up and stop preaching, its boring. For those that are interested and dont think I'm talikng bollox, I have a set of U.E. IEMs which I use for my bike, they are excellent for that application and would use them on stage but the bass response is weak due to the teeny speaker. when playing live I dont play at volumes that make ears ring so I dont have an issue. The IEMs that U.E produce are very comfortable when worn for very long periods (10+hrs) and mine have done lots of miles in the last 4 years and still sound fresh. I also use U.E blockers for shooting and and have an attenuated pair for big rifles. I have no business interest in U.E. but have had other brands in the past. U.E.s service and knowledge have been the best I have dealt yet. They are also by far the most comfortable ones I have had.
